Toggling Bluetooth and Wi-Fi via the new Control Center in iOS 11 won’t fully disable the connectivity features.

In addition, the toggles will reportedly turn themselves back on automatically when certain conditions are met, such as if a device is restarted, if it’s 5 a.m. local time, or specifically for Wi-Fi, if a user walks or drives to a new location. Connecting to a Wi-Fi network or a Bluetooth accessory will also toggle the options back on in Control Center. Read here for the full details!
